Awesome boats, my 21' narrow is the same width as the 19s. My 4th eagle plus the race stuff. Love em. Best part is big motor, little motor is all still fun!

been on the lower red with a couple 19s with ct525 in them, what a blast

Yeah Id buy Eagle all the way. I remember when they were still out in Sylvan, a long time ago.
Id hang out there with my Dad, check out thier racing boats with 1200+ HP

They used to be really into sledding too. Built custom tunnels and had some rank sleds back in the day.

No he said the one in it now is 475hp, but he has a 700+ hp motor for it too I guess.

Those Step Tek's are a cool little boat. That's probably what Id get.

The paint on that boat is awesome to. Love the green flake!

Anyone use the kenwood 1824bt control unit for a stereo before? Just got it yesterday and installed in my boat seems pretty nice, just hook up a phone to it. No display, all rubberized, and comes with a 400w amp. Perfect for my speakers. Made a little mount for it to drop down because I didn’t want to cut a hole in my dash for it. Hopefully it’s high enough that it’s out of the way, and back enough the padding on the dash pad is going to protect it from the elements.

Did Saunders to the dam. Was a great time! Got suck a couple of time. Big thanks to Chrisco for the helping had getting out of the trees!

All done with my stereo install. No idea what I was doing on this part on where to install speakers on the front so I got some scrap wood and went to town. I’m glad I put them up there under the dash. I am strapped for space as it is and having them anywhere else would’ve taken some precious cargo room. The back speakers were obvious on where to put them, give off a lot of sound with the space under the seat acts almost like a box amplifying it. Also put a cheap toggle switch on the radio control wire since I’m not running a deck to control the power to it, this way I can run the stereo with the key off.

Kenwood 1824bt is the control unit, and comes with an amplifier. Princess auto had audio research marine speakers on sale for $34 a pair so I got two pairs. Worth the money even if they aren’t the best.

Robertson Falls? Looks like high water level this year.

Robertson Falls? Looks like high water level this year.

That is the place, not sure what normals are but it's about a foot below the high water marks on the rocks in most places on the lake. About the same as last year. And higher than a few years ago.

That seems like a really sh!tty spot to park a boat.
